Born Independence Day, 1980.

Yeah,
I broke up with him when someone firebombed his car in front of the restaurant I was working in...

I may have been a ditz, but I had a very strong sense of self-preservation.

Stealing parts off of a 5"/54 Gun Mount at the Fleet Gunnery School at the head of the Tin Can Alley quay at San Diego's 32nd Street Naval Base because Jimmy Carter's Navy wouldn't give us the repair dollars to fix our gun mount.

The good news is that Reagan was elected that year!

Never did work in a shoe store, but I handed out the rental shoes at the bowling alley, and you get practiced at it....

In 1980 I voted for the first time.

And I voted for Ronald Reagan.
